Abbey Studios School of Photography

This course is designed for the photographer who wants to improve on their posing and composition skills together with more advanced training on Work Flow, image manipulation and final output, in ways that increase your sales potential.

You will work in a group of no larger than 6 delegates, with models to practice your posing techniques and general image capture. We will discuss the advantages of shooting RAW as opposed to JPEG format, selling on-line, pre-selling packages etc. Much of the outdoor work will be either at a local church or Hotel.

We will also be working to help you achieve a professional qualification, showing you how to shoot images that will be of the standard required for such qualifications. We will demonstrate the art of using fill-in flash, and in particular how it's use can make the photography of the 'amateur photographer guests' very difficult!

We will spend time looking at marketing ideas, brochure / marketing leaflet production as well as the variety of 'Story Book' and 'Reportage' albums currently on the market.

This will be an intensive 2 day course - as well as a Digital SLR camera you will need a tripod, and flash gun. Reflectors and a Laptop are optional.

The cost of this course which includes tea & coffee and a light lunch on each day is only £325.00.
